CKFinder 2.4 Released

The CKSource team is happy to announce the release of CKFinder 2.4. This is a major release that includes a variety of fixes for virtually all server-side connectors. It also introduces two major new features: image Watermarks for Java and a Search box to help you easily find files. In all, the new version includes over 60 improvements! 

New Features

Search Tool Search Tool

The toolbar now includes a new Search box that lets you easily find files in selected folders. This will facilitate finding what you are looking for in large repositories using specific file name strings. 

The image Watermark feature is now available for Java as well! It lets you easily add logos and emblems to uploaded images, offering an all-in-one solution for sites that heavily rely on copyrighted pics. We have also checked and ensured Watermark compatibility with all popular servers in this release, including Weblogic.
